I must admit I love the noise of a BOV and would love to have it again on my 34GTR, but after speaking to a couple of tuners most of them don't recommend it as they say at times the car will just cut out. One tuner said that is true, but her can tune it and avoid the GTR from cutting out.

ANyone here have BOVs on their R34 GTR? Any issues? And im talking about Vent to atmosphere.

Thanks!

You won't gain anything with a Vent atmosphere BOV.

It just give noise and a basic reason for the car stalling is, the atm BOV is not plumbing back the air.

Also you should already have stock GTR BOV's.

Put twin air pods on if you want the 'Choo' noise.

I wouldnt bother with atmo venting BOV.

Your wasting money on something that doesnt benefit the car and can make it drive worse ie stalling/bad fuel consumption etc

If you run Djetro power fc or a map sensor based computer, you can run the stock recirc valves as atmospheric BOVs.

Airflow meter based management doesn't like BOVs due to not knowing where the metered air that was in the system went!

awesome,i used to have a aftermarket bov on my r-33 but removed it cause all of the stalling but i do miss the noise but one of my mates gave me his hks pod filter a while ago but i never installed it....i will now if it makes the stock bov sound better.

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
